If you love the taste of raspberries or have found yourself with a load of them on your hands this season and you'd like to know about some amazing ways to enjoy them, then you will want to read on. I've compiled some of my favorite raspberry recipes for you to try out yourself, right here in this post.
Fun facts about raspberries
Did you know that raspberries can be red, purple, gold, or black in color? The golden ones are sweeter than the other varieties.
A raspberry is made of small bead-like fruits called "drupelets" that are clustered around a center core.
Inside each drupelet is a seed. So, your average raspberry contains about 100-120 seeds!
It's also important to know that, unlike many other fruits, raspberries won't continue to ripen after they are picked. So be sure you don't pick them until you're ready. Now, let's look at how you can eat them.
There are many different ways to enjoy fresh berries from a raspberry recipe. You can enjoy them sprinkled on top of some vanilla ice cream in a medium bowl. You can even do the same with frozen berries. I love to take some frozen raspberries and sprinkle them over the top of a homemade dessert or put them in a smoothie.
Let's look at some other great ways you can enjoy this delicious berry.
